SLEEP POWER: How to get better sleep and to supercharge your life!
About this book
Quality sleep is absolutely essential to “charge our batteries” for the rigours of each day. The “reset” qualities of sleep helps the mind to focus, to be more creative and even to not allow the body to put on excess weight…yet so many people don’t achieve regular good sleep, and this leaves them feeling groggy, not able to concentrate, not enjoying life to the full and open to all sorts of horrendous chronic ailments and diseases. Millions are addicted to taking sleeping pills that don’t provide sleep of any quality, and a daily morning cup of strong coffee is also not the answer.Written by broadcaster Peter Baker, the book is the culmination of intense research into his own sleep problems when filming on location, with virtually every night in a different bed. It’s packed with scientific and medical facts and information about why we all need to sleep, and the best ways for achieving this astonishing and almost magical nightly “reset” of our bodies that helps to repair both physical but also mental damage.You'll learn how to work with your body, not against it, and a whole host of different practical techniques for getting to sleep. Also covered in the book are sleep issues as people age, difficult sleeping partners, night shift working, time zone crossing, foods and drink, choosing the right bed and mattress and also the importance of our dreams.
